Pelech/Pulock tandem has been great. Don't think anyone can disagree. I just think Pulock isn't as sharp. Not saying he's playing bad just not as well as we have become accustomed to, where Pelech has just really grown. He's just really defensively sound. Nothing flashy but gets it done imo.

On MC2, Yeah it would be nice if those guys could turn it off and on but they play a grind it out in your face game and its hard to flip it on and off. Hopefully they can stay healthy.

Pulock has started slow and has picked it up a bit.

MC2 is tough because you do not want them changing their game but it does take it's toll and makes it tougher to stay healthy.

Just wanted to throw this out there but I think for me there are 3 players who have really stepped up their play this year. Beau, Toews and Pelech. They have been very noticeable and in a very good way. Which has helped the Islanders build/grow on last year.

One other player who always gives it 150% who has obviously worked on a aspect of his game that was a deficiency for every center for the last few years was Casey. He has been a beast in the FO dot and the team really needed that.

Just some observations I have hadst, fire away.

Pelech is their best shut down guy hes just solid and always in the right position. Toews I'm not sure if hes stepped up because he was really good last year and the first 4 games aside hes continued on the same trajectory. Posession is important? What does this have to do with faceoffs?
